So, what is the advantage of using Fraps for the capture, rather then just convert from an ahf?

Actually, converting via the AHF is better.  IIRC in the AHF, the outputted .avi files are uncompressed and have no codec attached to them.  Recording with fraps captures video in a Fraps codec, so there is some compression going on.

Fraps may be easier to record and set up.  That's the only advantage I can think of.

Just saw your film. It's a great first movie Dave! Love the action, and the single plane focus on the Ki. Music choice was nice, and I could tell you were getting the hang of syncronizing the music and the footage as you went along. Bravo sir. You have a talent for this, and soon enough your be getting fraps, and adding soundtrack music, gun sounds, explosions, damage, etc...

By the way, I meant to thank you for your kind words.  Much appreciated.

You're very welcome. I look forward to your next film.

Just learned that PhotoBucket would host a streaming version of my video, for those folks who don't like to download files from folks they don't know (perfectly understandable).

Here's a link to it, enjoy.

Very cool dave! 
That's my favorite Ki skin, I applaud your good taste. (wait - i don't quite like the way that sounds)
I love when you split that spit in half longitudinally. I've only done that once and it was using a Yak 9t.
Well done.

Thanks!  Ki-84s rule!

Nice film, fast paced, good use of different angles and a nice shot to top it off.
